The Strategic CIO: Proud, Accomplished and Burdened with Choices

While today’s CIOs typically enjoy a highly strategic role within the enterprise and a prized position on the CEOs’ executive teams, that distinction comes with a price. You must deliver a high quality customer and employee experience, allocate capital to maximize productivity, and realize the advantages of new technology – all while optimizing a budget with no to low-single-digit growth.

Software Defined Networking: Beyond the Hype

Software defined networking (SDN) is in the news just about every day. Is that much happening with SDN, or is all the news mostly hype?

7 Tactics to Reduce your Data Center’s Power Draw

Our never-ending hunger for more data and bandwidth has resulted in an unintended consequence – a substantial increase in global energy consumption.

The Future of Ethernet

Ethernet has come a long way since it was first introduced, but even now, it is just getting started.

Why Ethernet for Infrastructure?

Ethernet as a data networking technology has been in wide use for many years, keeping pace with the network speeds demanded by applications and adding key service management and quality of service (QoS) attributes needed to succeed beyond the local area network (LAN).

Efficient cloud-based backup

With more businesses – both large and small – taking advantage of digital capabilities, network and data security have become prominent features for anyone looking to avoid a major disaster.

Shopping for an Ethernet Service Provider? Here are Four Things to Consider.

By linking key locations via Ethernet, businesses can avoid the bottlenecks and security breaches that plague the public Internet. Traffic that otherwise might have taken a convoluted route, via a patchwork of networks, can now flow more efficiently to its destination over a dedicated low-latency connection.

3 reasons SDN will boost Carrier Ethernet

Carrier Ethernet services have seen significant growth over the last decade, most recently being driven by the uptake in cloud services. Now SDN will bring greater performance and cost efficiency to optical transport networks and carrier Ethernet services, further driving this growth.

Controlling Costs in the Enterprise Network: Layer 2 vs. Layer 3

Whether managing a campus network or specialized enterprise wide area network (WAN), cost control is a paramount concern as IT budgets are under constant pressure and return on investment is routinely scrutinized.

Enabling the Enterprise Cloud Roadmap: Strategies for CIOs

Today’s CIOs are facing an evolving set of priorities and challenges. They need to deliver strategic value to the enterprise, and often this means ensuring the organization can react quickly – at the “speed of business” – and stay relevant.

Overcoming the latency challenge

Today’s networks have a lot of ground to cover. The resources companies depend on—cloud-based applications, remote offices, and centralized data centers, to name a few—can be located a significant distance from the business.

Ensuring Business Continuity with Ethernet

Until recently, business continuity (also known as disaster recovery) was more of an afterthought than a priority for companies. Even when there were plans in place, they were rarely updated or tested.

Build vs. Buy: 5 questions to ask about your cloud infrastructure

You’re a growing enterprise, and you are moving to the cloud. Sure, there are still questions around what applications and how aggressively you make the move, but the decision has already been made.

Improving the Enterprise Network with Carrier Ethernet

Beginning in the early 2000s, the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) pioneered the development of Carrier Ethernet—Ethernet for use in wide-area networks (WANs)—by classifying several significant carrier-grade attributes that distinguish it from the more familiar enterprise local-area network (LAN) Ethernet.

Ethernet: the power behind IT service delivery

Ethernet has been around for 40 years, and in that time has become the dominant networking technology for organizations around the world. Ethernet reliably and securely links computers, servers, storage, and other devices while minimizing the latency that doesn’t just slow down data, but can slow down business, as well.
